Referring to FIG. 1A, a first wafer WF1 and a second wafer WF2 are prepared. Each of the first wafer WF1 and the second wafer WF2 may include a plurality of semiconductor chip regions CR divided by scribe lane regions SL. The plurality of semiconductor chip regions CR refer to portions that are separated by a sawing process performed along the scribe lane regions SL from the first wafer WF1 or the second wafer WF2, and may operate as individual semiconductor chips.

In some example embodiments, the first wafer WF1 and the second wafer WF2 may be manufactured by using the same or substantially similar process.

Each of the first wafer WF1 and the second wafer WF2 may include a first semiconductor substrate 100 including the plurality of semiconductor chip regions CR and the scribe lane regions SL. A first semiconductor device 110, a wiring structure 120, a plurality of first internal connection pads 132, a first cover insulating layer 142, and a plurality of through-electrodes 150 may be located in each of the plurality of semiconductor chip regions CR of the first wafer WF1. The first semiconductor device 110, the wiring structure 120, a plurality of second internal connection pads 134, a second cover insulating layer 144, and the plurality of through-electrodes 150 may be located in each of the plurality of semiconductor chip regions CR of the second wafer WF2.

The first semiconductor substrate 100 may include a semiconductor (e.g., silicon (Si) or germanium (Ge)), or a compound semiconductor (e.g., silicon carbide (SiC), gallium arsenide (GaAs), indium arsenide (InAs), or indium phosphide (InP)). The first semiconductor substrate 100 may have an active surface and an inactive surface opposite to the active surface. For example, the first semiconductor device 110 and the wiring structure 120 may be located on the active surface of the first semiconductor substrate 100.

The first semiconductor device 110 may be, for example, a memory device. In some example embodiments, the first semiconductor device 110 may be a high bandwidth memory (HBM) dynamic-random access memory (DRAM) device. The first semiconductor devices 110 of the plurality of semiconductor chip regions CR of the first wafer WF1 and the second wafer WF2 may be semiconductor chips of the same type.

The wiring structure 120 may be electrically connected to the first semiconductor device 110 and/or the through-electrode 150. The wiring structure 120 may include at least one metal wiring layer and at least one via plug connected to the at least one metal wiring layer.

The first cover insulating layer 142 and the second cover insulating layer 144 may cover sidewalls of the plurality of first internal connection pads 132 and sidewalls of the plurality of second internal connection pads 134, respectively, and may not cover and may expose top surfaces of the plurality of first internal connection pads 132 and the plurality of second internal connection pads 134, respectively. The first cover insulating layer 142 and the second cover insulating layer 144 may cover the first semiconductor substrates 100 even in the scribe lane regions SL of the first wafer WF1 and in the scribe lane regions SL of the second wafer WF2. Each of the first cover insulating layer 142 and the second cover insulating layer 144 may be formed of SiO, SiN, SiCN, SiCO, or a polymer material. Examples of the polymer material may include benzocyclobutene (BCB), polyimide (PI), polybenzoxazole (PBO), silicone, acrylate, and epoxy.

In some example embodiments, after the plurality of first internal connection pads 132 and the plurality of second internal connection pads 134 are formed, the first cover insulating layer 142 and the second cover insulating layer 144 may be formed. In other example embodiments, after the first cover insulating layer 142 and the second cover insulating layer 144 having a plurality of holes corresponding to the plurality of first internal connection pads 132 and the plurality of second internal connection pads 134 are formed, the plurality of first internal connection pads 132 and the plurality of second internal connection pads 134 filling the plurality of holes may be formed. Each of the plurality of first internal connection pads 132 and the plurality of second internal connection pads 134 may be formed of a material including, for example, copper (Cu).

In some example embodiments, the top surfaces of the plurality of first internal connection pads 132, a top surface of the first cover insulating layer 142, the top surfaces of the plurality of second internal connection pads 134, and a top surface of the second cover insulating layer 144 may be on the same plane (e.g., may be coplanar). In other example embodiments, one of the first internal connection pad 132 or the second internal connection pad 134 may protrude from a corresponding one of the top surface of the first cover insulating layer 142 or the top surface of the second cover insulating layer 144, and the other one of the first internal connection pad 132 or the second internal connection pad 134 may be recessed from a corresponding one of the top surface of the first cover insulating layer 142 or the top surface of the second cover insulating layer 144. Widths of the plurality of first internal connection pads 132 and widths of the plurality of second internal connection pads 134 may be the same in some example embodiments, and may be different in other example embodiments.

The through-electrode 150 may have a first end connected to the wiring structure 120 and a second end extending into the first semiconductor substrate 100.

The first cover insulating layer 142 and the second cover insulating layer 144 may be adhered to each other by applying heat and/or pressure in a process of attaching the second wafer WF2 to the first wafer WF1. For example, heat of a first temperature may be applied in the process of attaching the second wafer WF2 to the first wafer WF1.

Referring to FIGS. 1B and 1C, a plurality of device bonded pads 130 may be obtained by bonding the plurality of first internal connection pads 132 and the plurality of second internal connection pads 134 to correspond to each other by applying heat of a second temperature higher than the first temperature. The plurality of first internal connection pads 132 and corresponding ones of the plurality of second internal connection pads 134 may be expanded due to heat to contact each other, and then metal atoms may be diffused to be integrated, thereby forming the plurality of device bonded pads 130.

Referring to FIG. 1D, a portion of the first semiconductor substrate 100 of the second wafer WF2 is removed to expose the through-electrode 150 of the second wafer WF2. In some example embodiments, after a portion of an edge of the first semiconductor substrate 100 of the second wafer WF2 is removed, an upper portion of the first semiconductor substrate 100 of the second wafer WF2 may be removed to expose the through-electrode 150 of the second wafer WF2.

Referring to FIG. 1E, a plurality of upper connection pads 160 electrically connected to respective ones of the plurality of through-electrodes 150 are formed on the first semiconductor substrate 100 of the second wafer WF2. In some example embodiments, a protective insulating layer (not shown) that covers a top surface of the first semiconductor substrate 100 of the second wafer WF2, and exposes the plurality of upper connection pads 160 may be further formed. Although the plurality of upper connection pads 160 are directly connected to the plurality of through-electrodes 150 in FIG. 1E, example embodiments are not limited thereto. In some example embodiments, the plurality of upper connection pads 160 and the plurality of through-electrodes 150 may be electrically connected to each other through conductive rewiring patterns (not shown).

Referring to FIG. 1F, upper semiconductor chips UC each including a plurality of chip connection pads 260 electrically connected to the plurality of upper connection pads 160 are attached to the second wafer WF2. One upper semiconductor chip UC may be attached to the second wafer WF2 to correspond to at least two semiconductor chip regions CR of each of the first wafer WF1 and the second wafer WF2. That is, one upper semiconductor chip UC may correspond to at least four semiconductor chip regions CR of the first wafer WF1 and the second wafer WF2.

Each upper semiconductor chip UC may include a second semiconductor substrate 200, a second semiconductor device 210, and the plurality of chip connection pads 260. The second semiconductor substrate 200 may include a semiconductor or a compound semiconductor. The second semiconductor substrate 200 may have an active surface and an inactive surface opposite to the active surface. For example, the second semiconductor device 210 and the plurality of chip connection pads 260 may be located on the active surface of the second semiconductor substrate 200.

The second semiconductor device 210 may be, for example, a central processing unit (CPU) chip, a graphics processing unit (GPU) chip, or an application processor (AP) chip.

A plurality of chip connection terminals 250 may be located between the plurality of upper connection pads 160 and corresponding ones of the plurality of chip connection pads 260. The plurality of chip connection terminals 250 may be, for example, bumps or solder balls.

A molding member 300 surrounding the upper semiconductor chips UC is formed on the second wafer WF2. The molding member 300 may be formed of, for example, an epoxy molding compound (EMC). The molding member 300 may surround a top surface of the second wafer WF2 and a side surface of the upper semiconductor chip UC. In some example embodiments, the molding member 300 may not cover and may expose top surfaces of the upper semiconductor chips UC.

Referring to FIG. 1G, after a resultant structure of FIG. 1F is turned upside down (e.g., flipped) so that the first wafer WF1 is located over (e.g., above) the second wafer WF2, a portion of the first semiconductor substrate 100 of the first wafer WF1 is removed to expose the through-electrode 150 of the first wafer WF1. In some example embodiments, after a portion of an edge of the first semiconductor substrate 100 of the first wafer WF1 is removed, an upper portion of the first semiconductor substrate 100 may be removed to expose the through-electrode 150 of the first wafer WF1.

Referring to FIG. 1H, a rewiring structure RDS is formed on the first wafer WF1. The rewiring structure RDS may include a plurality of rewiring insulating layers 530, a plurality of rewiring conductive patterns 510 located on at least one of top surfaces and bottom surfaces) of the plurality of rewiring insulating layers 530, and a plurality of rewiring via patterns 520 each passing through at least one of the plurality of rewiring insulating layers 530 and connected to corresponding one or more of the plurality of rewiring conductive patterns 510. Each of the plurality of rewiring conductive patterns 510 and the plurality of rewiring via patterns 520 may include a seed layer contacting the rewiring insulating layer 530 and a conductive material layer on the seed layer.

Each of the plurality of rewiring conductive patterns 510 and the plurality of rewiring via patterns 520 may include, but is not limited to, metal, an alloy thereof, or a metal nitride. Each of the plurality of rewiring insulating layers 530 may include, for example, an organic compound. In some example embodiments, each of the plurality of rewiring insulating layers 530 may include an organic polymer material (e.g., photosensitive polyimide (PSPI)).

The rewiring conductive patterns 510 and the rewiring via patterns 520 may be electrically connected to the through-electrodes 150 of the first wafer WF1. A plurality of external connection terminals 550 contacting the rewiring conductive patterns 510 and electrically connected to the plurality of through-electrodes 150 of the first wafer WF1 may be attached to the rewiring structure RDS.

In some example embodiments, before the rewiring structure RDS is formed, a plurality of lower connection pads (not shown) electrically connected to the plurality of through-electrodes 150 and/or a protective insulating layer (not shown) covering a top surface of the first semiconductor substrate 100 and exposing the plurality of lower connection pads may be formed on the first semiconductor substrate 100 of the first wafer WF1. The plurality of lower connection pads may be formed in the same or substantially similar manner to that used to form the plurality of upper connection pads 160. In other example embodiments, when some of the plurality of rewiring conductive patterns 510 and some of the plurality of rewiring insulating layers 530 perform functions of the plurality of lower connection pads and the protective insulating layer, and thus the plurality of lower connection pads and the protective insulating layer may not be additionally formed.

Referring to FIGS. 1H and 1I, a plurality of the semiconductor packages 1 that are separated from one another are formed by cutting the rewiring structure RDS, the first wafer WF1, the second wafer WF2, and the molding member 300 along the scribe lane regions SL that do not vertically overlap the upper semiconductor chips UC. In each semiconductor package 1, the rewiring structure RDS, a first device layer DL1 that is a portion of the first wafer WF1 separated by the cutting to have at least two semiconductor chip regions CR, a second device layer DL2 that is a portion of the second wafer WF2 separated by the cutting to have at least two semiconductor chip regions CR, and a third device layer DL3 including the upper semiconductor chip UC may be sequentially stacked.

Referring to FIG. 2, in the semiconductor package 1, the rewiring structure RDS, the first device layer DL1 including at least two semiconductor chip regions CR, the second device layer DL2 including at least two semiconductor chip regions CR, and the third device layer DL3 including the upper semiconductor chip UC may be sequentially stacked. The at least two semiconductor chip regions CR of the first device layer DL1 and corresponding ones of the at least two semiconductor chip regions CR of the second device layer DL2 may vertically overlap each other.

The first device layer DL1 may include the first semiconductor substrate 100, the first semiconductor device 110, the wiring structure 120, the plurality of through-electrodes 150 passing through the first semiconductor substrate 100, and the first cover insulating layer 142. The second device layer DL2 may include the first semiconductor substrate 100, the first semiconductor device 110, the wiring structure 120, the plurality of through-electrodes 150 passing through the first semiconductor substrate 100, and the second cover insulating layer 144. The second device layer DL2 may be located on the first device layer DL1 so that the first cover insulating layer 142 and the second cover insulating layer 144 contact each other. The device bonded pads 130 may pass through the first cover insulating layer 142 and the second cover insulating layer 144, and may electrically connect the wiring structure 120 of the first device layer DL1 to the wiring structure 120 of the second device layer DL2. Accordingly, the device bonded pads 130 may electrically connect the through-electrodes 150 of the first device layer DL1 to the through-electrodes 150 of the second device layer DL2. The plurality of upper connection pads 160 electrically connected to the plurality of through-electrodes 150 of the second device layer DL2, respectively, may be located on the second device layer DL2. At least some of the plurality of through-electrodes 150 of each of the first device layer DL1 and the second device layer DL2 may be electrically connected to the first semiconductor device 110 of each of the first device layer DL1 and the second device layer DL2. In some example embodiments, at least some of the plurality of through-electrodes 150 of each of the first device layer DL1 and the second device layer DL2 may be used only for electrical connection with the second semiconductor device 210.

Each of the first device layer DL1 and the second device layer DL2 may include the scribe lane region SL that separates at least two semiconductor chip regions CR in each of which the first semiconductor device 110 is located, and may include residual scribe lane regions SLR surrounding the at least two semiconductor chip regions CR at edges of each of the first device layer DL1 and the second device layer DL2.

In a process of forming the plurality of semiconductor packages 1 that are separated from one another by cutting the rewiring structure RDS, the first wafer WF1, the second wafer WF2, and the molding member 300 as described with reference to FIGS. 1H and 1I, the residual scribe lane regions SLR refer to portions of the scribe lane regions SL remaining after the cutting.

For example, when a wafer is cut along scribe lane regions into a plurality of semiconductor chips that are separated from one another, only portions of the scribe lane regions may remain along edges of each semiconductor chip as the residual scribe lane regions SLR.

However, in the semiconductor package 1 according to the example embodiment, because each of the first device layer DL1 and the second device layer DL2 includes at least two semiconductor chip regions CR, the scribe lane region SL that is not cut may be located between the at least two semiconductor chip regions CR, and the residual scribe lane regions SLR that are cut may be located at edges of each of the first device layer DL1 and the second device layer DL2. A first width W1 that is a width of the scribe lane region SL of each of the first device layer DL1 and the second device layer DL2 may be greater than a second width W2 that is a width of each of the residual scribe lane regions SLR that are cut. In some example embodiments, the first width W1 may be more than two times greater than the second width W2.

The rewiring structure RDS may include the plurality of rewiring insulating layers 530, the plurality of rewiring conductive patterns 510 located on at least one of the top surfaces and the bottom surfaces of the plurality of rewiring insulating layers 530, and the plurality of rewiring via patterns 520 each passing through at least one of the plurality of rewiring insulating layers 530 and connected to corresponding one or more of the plurality of rewiring conductive patterns 510. The rewiring conductive patterns 510 and the rewiring via patterns 520 may be electrically connected to the through-electrodes 150 of the first device layer DL1. The external connection terminals 550 electrically connected to the rewiring conductive patterns 510 may be attached to the rewiring structure RDS facing the first device layer DL1. The external connection terminals 550 may be attached to a bottom surface of the rewiring structure RDS, and the first device layer DL1 may be located on a top surface of the rewiring structure RDS.

The third device layer DL3 includes the upper semiconductor chip UC including the plurality of chip connection pads 260 electrically connected to the plurality of upper connection pads 160. The upper semiconductor chip UC may vertically overlap at least two semiconductor chip regions CR of the first device layer DL1 and the second device layer DL2. That is, the upper semiconductor chip UC may correspond to at least four semiconductor chip regions CR of the first device layer DL1 and the second device layer LD2. The plurality of chip connection terminals 250 may be located between the plurality of upper connection pads 160 and corresponding ones of the plurality of chip connection pads 260.

The molding member 300 surrounding the upper semiconductor chip UC may be located on the second device layer DL2. The molding member 300 may surround a top surface of the second device layer DL2 and a side surface of the upper semiconductor chip UC. In some example embodiments, the molding member 300 may not cover, and may expose a top surface of the upper semiconductor chip UC. In some example embodiments, a top surface of the molding member 300 and the top surface of the upper semiconductor chip UC may be on the same plane (e.g., may be coplanar).

In some example embodiments, a heat dissipation member (not shown) may be attached to the top surface of the upper semiconductor chip UC. A thermal interface material (TIM) layer may be located between the top surface of the upper semiconductor chip UC and the heat dissipation member. In some example embodiments, an electromagnetic interference (EMI) shield layer (not shown) may be formed on a side surface and a top surface of the semiconductor package 1.

In the semiconductor package 1 according to the example embodiment of the inventive concepts, the active surfaces of the first semiconductor substrates 100 of the first device layer DL1 and the second device layer DL2 are adhered to each other through face-to-face bonding, and the third device layer DL3 including the upper semiconductor chip UC is located on the first device layer DL1 and the second device layer DL2. Also, in each of the first device layer DL1 and the second device layer DL2, at least two semiconductor chip regions CR each including the first semiconductor device 110 may be horizontally located, and the upper semiconductor chip UC including the second semiconductor device 210 that is different from the first semiconductor device 110 may be located over the at least two semiconductor chip regions CR of each of the first device layer DL1 and the second device layer DL2.

In the semiconductor package 1 according to the example embodiment of the inventive concepts, because the upper semiconductor chip UC is attached to the second device layer DL2 that has a larger area than the upper semiconductor chip UC, a relatively fine pitch may be achieved without using an additional interposer, thereby reducing semiconductor package manufacturing costs. Also, in the semiconductor package 1 according to the example embodiment of the inventive concepts, because the rewiring structure RDS to which the external connection terminals 550 are connected is formed on the first device layer DL1 that has a larger area than the upper semiconductor chip UC, an additional printed circuit board may not be used, thereby achieving a relatively small form factor.

In the present disclosure, the semiconductor chip region CR, the scribe lane region SL, the first semiconductor substrate 100, the first semiconductor device 110, and the through-electrode 150 of the first device layer DL1 may be referred to as a first semiconductor chip region, a first scribe lane region, a first semiconductor substrate, a first semiconductor device, and a first through-electrode, respectively.
